Stunning Karen!!!! love the tulips as well.

Next door neighbour has a nice Hebe and she has said that I can take a few cuttings if I wish to, I might just do that!.

Herb is a beautiful colour Kazz ......... lovely to see your tulips in flower, mine are showing buds but nowhere near the flowering stage yet...

[Kazz]

Thank you all.

Not all my tulips are in flower those are the early ones.

Alex it could be slugs..... have a look at this link http://www.blomsbulbs.com/growing/autumn/tulips_faq
I lift my tulips when the flowers have done and the leaves discolour. And always plant new bulbs when i replant the old ones. ;)

They don't need feeding unlike Daffs....Daffs I now plant in pots, then plant the pots in the garden then lift the pots to allow them to "die down naturaly as my garden is so small (I hate dying Daffs) and I can feed then in the pots :)
